So here goes my first post I’m In a relationship have been for a year and like 8 months the guy is great but I just hate that I feel like a burden because with my depression I cry a lot and it’s not so his fault but I feel like I’m limiting himself to having like a normal relationship I just feel so bad that he has to deal with me but I do love him and don’t want to lose him I just don’t want him to miss out on better opportunities

Have you talked to him about how you are feeling?

in reply to

Yes I have he said I don’t bother him and I said I don’t want to waste his time he said I’m not he wouldn’t want to be with anyone else and he loves me I just hate to have him think I’m unhappy cause I don’t want him to think that he doesn’t make me happy honest it’s nothing he does to get me sad

I guess it’s not really a problem to him I just hate having that feeling

in reply to

Well I think he knows what he wants and it’s you. Maybe with time you’ll start to accept that he loves you entirely. Whatever you are going through he’s choosing to be there for you and with you. I think you’ll be ok and you’ll learn to know that he’s got you!!😁

If he thought that your issues were too much for him or that he was the reason for them, he probably would have left. He must not feel he is missing any opportunities. Maybe he likes that he feels needed by you. Don't overthink it. He already told you the right things so you should believe him. Nobody is perfect. We all have some kind of quirks. If you have a good heart and are faithful, that is much more important.

Hi this doesn't make sense as he wouldn't be with you if he didn't want to! Surely he would leave, or do you think he is staying with you out of pity or something? He's not - he is choosing you regardless of your perceived faults so be grateful for a lovely man. He sounds like a keeper. x

I don’t think it’s pity at least I hope not but I guess with all these comments I have nothing to worry about then
